›TECHNICAL FIELD · 1 of 2

Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinases (PI3-kinases) are a subfamily of the lipid kinases which catalyse the transfer of a phosphate group to the 3′-position of the inositol ring of phosphoinositides (Vanhaesebroeck and Waterfield, Exp Cell Res. 1999 Nov. 25; 253(1):239-54).

They have an important role in numerous cell processes such as e.g. cell growth and differentiation processes, the control of cytoskeletal changes and the regulation of intracellular transport processes (Vanhaesebroeck et al., Annu Rev Biochem. 2001; 70:535-602). In view of their in vitro specificity for particular phosphoinositide substrates the PI3-kinases may be divided into different classes. The members of the receptor-regulated class I are heterodimeric enzymes which consist of a catalytic subunit (p110) weighing 110-120 kDa and a non-catalytic subunit (p50, p55, p85, p101) weighing 50-101 kDa. The most highly conserved region in all the PI3-kinases is the C-terminally situated kinase domain. It has structural features which can also be found in the majority of known protein kinases. These also include e.g. highly conserved amino acids which are responsible for the coordination of the ATP molecule (Walker et al., Nature. 1999 Nov. 18; 402(6759):313-20).

Three of the four members of the class I PI3-kinases associate constitutively with an adaptor subunit weighing 50-85 kDa, of which p85 is the prototype. The interaction takes place via the so-called p85 binding domain which can be found on the catalytic subunits of the PI3-kinase α, β and δ. The three forms are grouped in class IA on account of this structural feature. The catalytic subunit γ of the PI3-kinase, p110γ, associates instead with regulatory proteins weighing 101 or 84 kDa, which are known as p101 and p84. This structural division into class IA and IB also shows parallels in the functional properties of the corresponding PI3-kinase isoforms (Vanhaesebroeck and Waterfield, Exp Cell Res. 1999 Nov. 25; 253(1):239-54)

Thus, the PI3-kinase α, β and δ are activated predominantly by receptor-tyrosine-kinases (RTKs) or soluble tyrosine kinases. The p85-subunit serves as an adaptor, as it is able to recognise and bind the phosphorylated tyrosine groups of specific amino acid sequences (YxxM) with its SH2 domains. The PI3Kγ on the other hand is activated mainly by Gβγ-subunits which are released from heterotrimeric G-proteins after activation of heptahelical receptors. This differing coupling to cell surface receptors combined with a more or less restrictive expression necessarily results in very different tasks and functions for the 4 class I PI3-kinases in the intact organism (Wymann et al., Trends Pharmacol Sci. 2003 July; 24(7):366-76).

A number of independent findings indicate that class IA PI3-kinases are involved in uncontrolled cell growth and differentiation processes. Thus, the first detected PI3-kinase activity was associated with the transforming activity of viral oncogenes, such as e.g. the middle T antigen of polyomaviruses, Src tyrosine kinases or activated growth factors (Workman, Biochem Soc Trans. 2004 April; 32(Pt 2):393-6). In many tumours, such as e.g. breast cancer, ovarian or pancreatic carcinoma, there is found to be an overactivity of Akt/PKB, which is activated directly by the lipid products of class I PI3-kinases and thus transmits the signals on into the cell. Moreover, it was found just recently that the PIK3CA-gene which codes for p110α has a high mutation frequency in various types of tumour, such as colon, breast or lung carcinomas, some examples of which were able to be characterised as activating mutations (Samuels et al., Science. 2004 Apr. 23; 304(5670):554).

The most recent member of the class IA PI3-kinases, PI3Kδ, is expressed more restrictively than PI3Kα and β. In so-called “knock-in” mice in which the catalytic subunit of PI3Kδ, p110δ, had been replaced by an inactive mutant, it was demonstrated that this PI3K-isoenzyme plays a specific part in the signal transduction of B- and T-lymphocytes after antigen receptor stimulation (Okkenhaug et al., Science. 2002 August; 297(5583):1031-4). These are mechanisms which play a part especially in autoimmune diseases such as e.g. Crohn's disease or rheumatoid arthritis.

The PI3Kγ is activated almost exclusively by G i -coupling heptahelical receptors. Thus, in neutrophils in mice which express no PI3Kγ, no PI3,4,5-P 3 formation was observed if they were stimulated with IL-8, fMLP, LTB 4 or C5a (Hirsch et al., to Science. 2000 Feb. 11; 287(5455):1049-53). This shows that at least in this type of cells PI3Kγ is the only PI3-kinase isoform which couples to heptahelical receptors. Moreover, isolated neutrophils and macrophages from the PI3Kγ-deficient mice exhibited a significantly reduced chemotactic activity or production of oxygen radicals elicited by a variety of chemokines and chemoattractors. Also reduced was the IgE-mediated activation of mast cells which had been isolated from p110γ-deficient mice. There has been some discussion that the mechanism responsible might be a positive feedback mechanism in which the PI3Kγ is activated by G i -coupling adenosine A 3 receptors (Laffargue et al., Immunity. 2002 March; 16(3):441-51).

In spite of this decreased ability to react to inflammation mediators, the p110γ-deficient mice have normal viability and reproductive powers and have the same life expectancy as wild-type comparison animals reared identically. From this it can be concluded that the class IB PI3Kγ plays a central role in the activation of various inflammatory cells, and therefore isoform-specific inhibitors represent an attractive possibility for anti-inflammatory therapy with comparatively minor side effects (Ward and Finan, Curr Opin Pharmacol. 2003 August; 3(4):426-34). Apart from its function in leukocytes PI3Kγ also appears to be involved in the cardiovascular system, despite its low expression in cardiomyocytes. Thus, p110γ-deficient mice exhibited an increase in cardiac muscle contractility which may presumably be explained by an overproduction of cAMP (Crackower et al., Cell. 2002 Sep. 20; 110(6):737-49). It has only recently been possible to demonstrate that PI3Kγ is also involved in the development of cardiac hypertrophy. Thus, p110γ-deficient mice exhibited significantly reduced hypertrophy and fibrosis compared with wild-type animals in an isoproterenol-induced cardiac insufficiency model (Oudit et al., Circulation. 2003 Oct. 28; 108(17):2147-52).

Some compounds which may be prepared by one of the methods of synthesis described above are hereinafter listed by way of example. All the melting points (m p ) are given in ° C.:. In order to determine the inhibitory activity of the compounds on PI3Kγ, an in-vitro kinase assay is set up which is based on the transfer of the terminal γ-phosphate of ATP to phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP 2 ). The enzyme activity used is the Gβ 1 γ 2 -His stimulated PI3Kγ. The expression and purification of Gβ 1 γ 2 -His and p101-GST/p110γ from Sf9-cells ( Spodoptera frugiperda 9) has already been described (Maier et al., J. Biol. Chem. 1999 (274) 29311-29317).

The kinase assay is carried out in 96-well plates. Each well contains 10 μl of the compound to be tested which is dissolved in assay buffer (40 mM Hepes, pH 7.5, 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM EGTA, 1 mM β-glycerophosphate, 1 mM DTT, 7 mM MgCl 2 and 0.1% BSA; 6% DMSO). 30 μl of lipid vesicles containing 2 ng of PI3Kγ and 24 ng of Gβ 1 γ 2 -His is added in each case. The lipid vesicles in turn are generated by suspending a mixture of PIP 2 (0.7 μg/well), phosphatidylethanolamine (7.5 μg/well), phosphatidyl serine (7 μg/well), sphingomyelin (0.7 μg/well) and phosphatidyl choline (3.2 μg/well) in lipid buffer (assay buffer without DMSO) by ultrasound treatment. After the addition of the lipid vesicles the reaction is started by the addition of 20 μl reaction buffer (40 mM Hepes, pH 7.5, 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM EGTA, 1 mM β-glycerophosphate, 1 mM DTT, 7 mM MgCl 2 and 0.1% BSA; 1 μM ATP and 0.2 μCi [γ- 33 P]-ATP). The reaction mixture is incubated in this way for 2 h and then stopped by the addition of 60 μl of Stop-buffer (40 mM Hepes, pH 7.5, 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM EGTA, 16 mM EDTA, 1 mM β-glycerophosphate, 1 mM DTT). 110 μl of the assay solution is then transferred to Multiscreen filter plates (Millipore, MAIPNOB). The plates are filtered by the application of vacuum and subsequently washed twice with 200 μl/well PBS. The plates are dried at 50° C., allowed to cool, supplemented with 50 μl/well Microscint 20 and counted using a TopCount (Perkin Elmer).

All the compounds shown have an IC 50 value of less than 800 nM in the test.

The mixture is screened, then moistened with a solution of polyvinylpyrrolidone in water, kneaded, granulated while wet and dried. The granulate, the rest of the corn starch and the magnesium stearate are screened and mixed together. The mixture is compressed to form tablets of a suitable shape and size.

The finely ground active substance, some of the corn starch, lactose, microcrystalline cellulose and polyvinylpyrrolidone are mixed together, the mixture is screened and worked with the remaining corn starch and water to form a granulate which is dried and screened. The sodium-carboxymethyl starch and the magnesium stearate are added and mixed in and the mixture is compressed to form tablets of a suitable size.

The active substance, corn starch, lactose and polyvinylpyrrolidone are thoroughly mixed and moistened with water. The moist mass is pushed through a screen with a 1 mm mesh size, dried at about 45° C. and the granules are then passed through the same screen. After the magnesium stearate has been mixed in, convex tablet cores with a diameter of 6 mm are compressed in a tablet-making machine. The tablet cores thus produced are coated in a known manner with a covering consisting essentially of sugar and talc. The finished coated tablets are polished with wax

The substance and corn starch are mixed and moistened with water. The moist mass is screened and dried. The dry granules are screened and mixed with magnesium stearate. The finished mixture is packed into size 1 hard gelatine capsules.

The active substance is dissolved in water at its own pH or optionally at pH 5.5 to 6.5 and sodium chloride is added to make it isotonic. The solution obtained is filtered free from pyrogens and the filtrate is transferred under aseptic conditions into ampoules which are then sterilised and sealed by fusion. The ampoules contain 5 mg, 25 mg and 50 mg of active substance.

The hard fat is melted. At 40° C. the ground active substance is homogeneously dispersed. It is cooled to 38° C. and poured into slightly chilled suppository moulds.

Distilled water is heated to 70° C. Hydroxyethyl-cellulose is dissolved therein with stirring. After the addition of sorbitol solution and glycerol the mixture is cooled to ambient temperature. At ambient temperature, sorbic acid, flavouring and substance are added. To eliminate air from the suspension it is evacuated with stirring.
